About this space

The bar and dining area of Tap Trap Bar is designed to offer both comfort and functionality, creating a warm and inviting space for guests to gather and enjoy. The interior showcases a rustic yet contemporary design, blending seamlessly with the historic nature of the building while offering a modern twist.


Bar Area:

- A large central bar serves as the focal point of the venue, offering a broad selection of draught beers, bottled beers, premium spirits, and crafted cocktails. The bar is designed to cater to a wide range of tastes and provides an excellent experience for socialising.

- The bar is accessible for guests until 1AM, ensuring ample time to enjoy drinks and unwind.
The sound system is strategically placed throughout the bar area, providing crystal-clear audio that enhances the atmosphere, whether you're listening to music or engaging in conversation.

- TV screens are positioned both at the front and back of the bar, offering excellent visibility to most of the seating area. These TVs can be used for anything from live sports to special presentations or entertainment.


Seating and Layout:

- The seating is designed to wrap around the entire venue, offering comfortable seating for 60+ guests. This creates a dynamic, open flow that encourages both intimate dining and group interaction.

Two of these are located at the front of the venue, close to the door, while a third is located at the back, though slightly obscured from general view, offering a more private setting. One of these nooks is equipped with a projector, perfect for events or presentations that require visual displays.
